Fetterman mentioned allegations of excessive drinking and sexual assault, although no formal charges have been filed. Despite these allegations, Fetterman is open to the possibility of supporting Hegseth.
Fetterman expressed his intention to have a straightforward conversation with Hegseth during their meeting. He admitted to being unfamiliar with Hegseth prior to his nomination but sees this as an opportunity to discuss various military issues, such as China, Israel, and Ukraine.
